Tequila Mockingbird loves Rutlemania

I received this e-mail from my friend Tequila Mockingbird and just had to share it with you! ~ M

The phone rings and my Galpal Cyn is on the the other end . She said Do you want to go and see the Rutles, I said where and Yeah and what time? and Let's Go and meet at the Cat and Fiddle for a pre play pint, Having said that her car hot Derby Doll , she super rockabilly.

I have a bass and Cyn has a Newcastle, then on to the Ricardo Montalban Theatre on Vine St.
Indeed Rutlemania is alve and well and the the house is at capacity for the 2nd performance.
Eric Idle and Lorne Micheals modestly presented Rutlemania the semi-spetacular Tribute Concert starring the Fab four aas the Prefab four Dirk, Nasty, Stig, and Barry The semi Ledegendary Rutles whose legend will last a lunchtime.

It was devivised. and directed by Eric Idle and the music wand lyrics by Neil Innes. I love the Rutles. It is a parody of the Beatles entire career in 90 miutes with the evolution and costuming worked in and the constant presense of Groupie Go Go dancers. The flyers states Yes Mersey Boy's Live on Stage for a few nights only! Plus real girls with singing and dancing and exotic tea drinking. This was a once in a Lunchtime experience and during intermission I stepped out for a fag and because of my filthy addiction I was out in front all alone and I met Eric Idle outside. He said I have a wonderful name ! I admire his all round brilliance.

The show is at Ricardo Montalban Theatre 1615 Vine street in Hollywood
